His Lordship accompanied the Mayor to the City Hall, where numbers more members of the Common Council, and others —were introduced to him. The Earl expresses very great satisfaction at the manner in which he has been reeeived in Boston, in this city, and elsewhere on his ;ournev ; and he has la ten exceedingly gratified at the feelings which he finds per vading the great body of the American people 10 regard to the Canadian troubles, and the strong desire which exists for preserving the existing amicable relations between the two na tions.

In 1 8 ,- .6, Mr. Charles Pearson issued a circular, in which he propounded the basis of this Company. Circumstances prevented its inarnecliate formation, thottr.c,h at that time upwards of 300,0001. was privately offered towards carrying it into effect; s i nce th at period, the price cf coal has continued to increase ; the combina tion of Owners and Factors has became wider, more stringent, and more oppressive. N o A ct o f P ar l iament can effectually grapple with it, though the height to which it has already gone may be gathered from the [astounding fact that Newcastle coals sold in - -"gYpt two shillings per ton cheaper than they were permitted to be sold in London. The object of this Company is to secure to its Shareholders of the Second Class, coals, at the smallest cost at which they can be P ro cured, without the enormous additions which the present system n °e f e , a ,.,_` i °r l 3, and which it can b e c l ear l y prove d , amount to upwards '``'• Per ton. For this purpose the Company will have its o wn pits, it`; own vessels, and everything else that may be necessary ; will load and unload without loss of time ; will deliver to its own Shareholders without the intervention of Factors, or the heavy charges that now fall upon oonsurners, and instead thereof only add fire per. cent. to the price, in addition to the current expenses as in terest upon the Shares of the Capitalists. No deed need be signed by Shareholders, and no .Act of Par liantent will be necessary, as there will be no debts, and no credits (Contracts with Government forming the sole exception.) Con sumers may have Coals to the amount of their Shares, and renew such shares as convenient. In addition to the Newcastle Coals (some of the best of which are within the option of the Company, the valuation of the pits to be taken in Shares) they have evidence of the existence, and the facility and. cheapness of procuring and carrying other coals of groat excellence, in which the saving will considerably exceed 10s. per ton, and which are also within their option. These sad other sources of supply, the possession of Pits of their own, and the contract with the consumers' class of Shareholders for a year certain, will effectually prevent any fighting trade or o th er ruinous , competitio n by th e monopo li sts o f the North and the South, who can only crash small and dependent Companies, not having self.reso (trees to rely upon. The 'option of changing Consumers' and Capitalists' Shares into each o'ilier at the end of the first Year, will enable those who require Coal, to have it at probably 30 per Cent. cheaper than they can otherwise procure it, and when by leaving London they no longer reqcir e it, to get 5 per Cent. interest for their money, with such aMitiona as the premium. on any future extension of the Capital may occasion. The Opinions of several eminent Barristers have been taken who ther this scheme would involve the Shareholders in any Commer cial or Joint Stock responsibility—the answer unanimously Las been that it would not. Twenty Directors to be anneally eleeted—half by and out of the Capitalists'class, an d h a lf b y and out of the Co ns umers' class.

An advertisement lately appeared in the papers under this head, attempting to prove that the Blackwall Railway would in a few years pay 30 per cent., whilst the Brighton would only pay 4 1 / 2 per cent. The utter absurdity of this, a short line, paying more than a long one, needs no refutatio n . By th e same process of reasoning, the Blackwall speculator wou ld ma k e it appear that the Grand Junction only pays 11/ per cent., for he would say it took four years to complete, and now pays 5 per cent., which, divided by four, gives 1 per cent. per annum. That it was a half-year's dividend would not be worth his while to mention. Let us take his overcharged estimate for the Brighton line, in cluding the present premium of 5!. per share, 1,515,0001. (Locke, Rennie, and Rastrick, no mean authorities, estimate it at 1,120,000/. ) The proved traffic on the line is 305,000/. The Directors allow one-half for expenses, leaving a net revenue of 132,500/. or 10 per cent. in three years, the time stated by the before -named engineers for its completion. Now, let us take the actual state of the profit according to his own calculation. If in three years it pay 10 per cent., the value of th e s h ares w ill of course be d ou bl e , an d every hundred pounds paid will be worth two hundred. Thus, in three years, on, say, 15/., the first calls, you will receive cent. per cent. In two years, on the next calls, you will receive cent. per cent. And, for the remaining 201., in less than one year from the pay ment of the last call, you will receive cent. per cent. So that, by his own calculation, on the average, you will double' your property in one year and a half. Now, let me give you my own calculation, the correctness of which you can easily imagine.

ACCOUNT OF THE AFFAIR AT PELLE ISLAND.—E+ XtraCt Of a letter from a gentleman at Sandusky city to his friend in this city, dated March 3, 1838: " You will find an account of the movements of the Patriots in the Sandusky Clarion, which accompanies this. The town at this time (8 P.M.) is in a state of excitement almost un parelleled. A part of the officers belonging to the Patriot army on Point au Pelle Island have just arrived. They had a battle which lasted three hours, when They had to retreat, with a loss of from forty to eighty men killed, wounded, and prisoners.

Leaving a net revenue of £203,314 or about 16 1 / 2 per cent. ; and if you apply my former calculation (which is the only true one) you will then have some idea of the value of the property you hold. In the estimated traffic no account is taken of the immense ex pected increase of passengers diverted from Margate, Ramsgate, &c., the journey to each of these towns taking a whole day; to Brighton it will only occupy two hours and a half. The superiority of the latter for bathing and fashion cannot be disputed. The number of coaches on each of the main lines of the Rail , way, according to Pigot's Directory for 1836, is as follows : London to Bath and Bristol London to Birmingham London to Brighton London to S ou th ampton London to Norwich Liverpool and Birmingham 8 }Junction 16 Manchester an d Bi rm i ng h am Manchester and Leeds Manchester and Sheffield The population of London and Brighton together will, it is ex pected, in three years, amount to 2,000,000. Whilst the Manchester and Leeds shares are at a premium ofl9/. per share, with a passenger traffic that will not support nine coaches, you may, I think, be excused selling your shares (at a less pre mium) in a line with three times the present traffic, supporting twenty-eight coaches, the greatest number between any two towns of the United Kingdom. As this advertisement is only addressed to the Shareholders for their information, without any desire to depreciate the property of others, it will not be repeated. N.B.

BASTENNE and GAUJAC BITUMEN COMPANY. Capital 250,000/., divided into 12,500 shares of 201. each. Deposit 2/. per share. Tha p ropr i etors of the mines of Seyssell employ in the formation of bit'arsea the asphalte found in those mines, mixed with a great prop,Jrtion of mineral tar, which is an indispensable ingredient in the formatiom of the bitumen of Seyssel, and alone enables it to re f& t the effoct of heat and cold. This mineral tar is obtained from 'the mines of Bastenne and Gaujac, in the South of France. The proprietors of the Bastenno and Gaujac Mines have formed themselves into a Company at Paris, under the title of " La Societe dos Mines des d'Asphalte de 13astenne," with the ob ject of forming a bitumen out of the mineral tar obtained from these mines, on a system peculiar to themselves. This bitumen, which is ealled the bitumen of Bastenne and Gaujac, has been tried since the year 1830, and more particularly in the Pont Neuf, one of the most frequented thoroughfares of P;xis, and has been found superior to any other. The Count De Beuret, who is at present in London, has, with others, entered into a contract with the above Company for the purchase of the exclusive right of vending the tar of Bastenne and Gaujac in this country, and in every other except the United States .and France, and the Company formed for working the Bastenne And Gaujac Mines have by this contract bound themselves not to sell to any other persou for the purpose of exportation any tar pro duced from their mines. As the mineral tar necessary to the composition of bitumen cannot be obt a i ned in any other part of Europe but from the mines of Ills nx:le and Gauj ac , an d as th i s Company has the sole right of vend kip t hat tar i n thi s country, and on all the Continent excepting the gdoM of France, this undertaking holds forth the most brilliant rosp ects. the shares of the French Company already referred to are now demanded in Paris at a very large premium, and there is no doubt that the Comp any h ere w ill possess even greater advantages. The contract being made for the supply of tar, the expense of Ma nufacturing the bitu men w ill b e sma ll, and the Company wil therefore be enabled to commence operations at a trifling outlay; to meet the purchase of the exclusive privilege, and for the neces sary commencement, the deposit on the shares has been fixed at 21. each. One-fifth of the capital is taken by the contracting parties. The Contract being noe definitively settled, Prospectuses :will be i , nmediately issued, and the Shares appropriated.

(From the Dublin Temperance and Literary Gazette of Saturday la s t.) bile we deeply participate in the feelings of regret and disappointment, which we cannot but be aware pervades a large portion of our readers, at the termination of the Parlia mentary debate on the abolition of slavery, as the apprentice ship system in our West India Colonies may justly be called ; yet, on the whole, we consider the present prospects of the cause arc exceedingly encouraging. It is true that a •majority of fifty-four, in a House of nearly five hundred Members, have decided against Sir George Strickland's motion; but, on the other hand, upwards of two hundred Members have declared it as their opinion, that the apprenticeship system should cease, on the Ist of August next; and when we consider the igno rance that must still prevail upon the subject, we cannot but regard the division as a triumphant assertion of principle, ef fected, under, Providence, in a great measure by the un wearied exertions of the devoted advocates of this humane and just cause, and especially by the three hundred and eighty delegates, who have so vigorously fulfilled their duties in London. MEXICO. The New Orleans Bee, of the sth instant, contlins the following intelligence from Mexico : Letters received by the Levan Jones bring information that the ex-Vice-P res id ent o f M exico left Vera Cruz for Mexico on the 16th February with his family, and that he agrees with President Bustairente on certain subjects from which the Patriots infer a return to the federal Constitution. These letters likewise announc.? that General Urrea, who commanded in Sonora, hail taken possession of Durango, and declared in favour of the Confedercion. He had dispatched messengers to Texas for the purpose of indacing the Texans (who, it is said, confide implicitly in him) to advance to Durango, and to unite with him for the establishment of the federal Government in Mexico. Various similar demonstrations of public feeling had taken place in other parts of Mexico, and an immediate change in the organization of the country was anticipated. Vetbal information obtained from the same source adds, that several States, &catecas tmong the rest, had declared in favour of the federal Government; that a powerful forco having been sent from Mexico against General Urrea, a part of the Government troops had come out openly fot the con templated changes; that a battle had followed between the two parties; and the army had divided—that in favour of Urrea continued their march to join him, and the remainder returned to Mexico.

This day was published, The SEVENTH PART of the above work, containing highly finished Portraits of the Earl of LONSDALE, the Bishop of EXETER, and Sir E. B. SUGDEN, with Memoirs containing a condensed history of the most important events of their political Careers. Published by the Proprietors, Ryley and Co., 8, Regent-street, by J. Fraser, '213, Regent-street, and by F. G. Moon, Thread needle-street Again, let us look at the commanding situation which the cause now occupies. Three of the highest law authorities cf the land, Lords Brougham, Lyndhurst and Denman, have declared, by both words and deeds, that they do not consider there is any legal contract between the planters and tile nation, but that the negroes should be immediately freed. Sir Lionel Smith, the present Governor of Jamaica, has de clared that the apprentices are in many respects worse off than during the time of acknowledged slavery—Lord Glenelg, as Colonial Minister, has acknowledged that cruelties and barba rities are committed to a grievous extent, and that the suffer ings inflicted are subjects on which the mind cannot dwell without horror. Two French brigs of war were moored is the island of Sam dices ; in one of them was the Baron Deffandos, Minister worn France, who had left Mexico early in January. A squa dron of ten frigates and ships was momentarily expected, but it was believed that every thing would be settled amicably, particularly if the system proposed by Gomez Farius was pur sued. In the mean time the French are watched continually by the populace, and their position is rendered highly perilous by the continual insults and menaces to which they are sub. jected. The arrival of the squadron is greatly needed, in order to obviate the contemplated excess, an example of which we gave in Saturday's paper. EQUAL LAWS FOR IRELAND. Just Published, price Gd.

A SELECTION OF WINES OF THE VERY FIRST CHARACTER, And sold under circumstances, that while it makes manifest that it is a Genuine Sale, and without a limit as to price, proclaims a still more impo r t an t f ac t, t h at t h e quality of these Wines is such as to justify a n d ena bl e hi m to challange a comparison anywhere. The facts out of which this statement is made are shortly these— An eminent Wholesale House, of the first celebrity, has allowed their duty -paid stock to accumulate by slow degrees, until it has ar rived at the immense quantity which will be stated below ; and the character of the vendors is demonstrative proof that wine of a doubtful nature has never been permitted to occupy a place in their extensive cellars. It would be almost invidious to select any for particular praise ; they may be eulogised with great truth and sincerity, and recommended to all those who incline in the laudable propensity to indulge their friends with some of the finest Wines in England.

Nearly 766:(K0 British and Irish females have appealed to the Queen, on behalf of their suffering fellow subjects in the Colonies, and petition!, we believe, almost, if not altogether unexampled in number, have been forwarded to both Houses, to such an extent, that Lord Brougham presented 200 in one night, and seemed at a loss what to do with the number still remaining on his hands. In addition to these we have the Marquis of Sligo, late Go ♦ernor of Jamaica, who must be intimately acquainted, from his residence there, with the circumstances of the country, nobly coming forward to declare that all his slaves shall be free on the Ist of August —thus showing his conviction of their fitness for liberty ; and we rejoice to add, several others have followed his example. The House of Assembly in Monserrat, has decided that the apprenticeship shall terminate on the Ist of August, and the Governor of Barbadoes has recommended a similar course in that island. To cur anti-slavery friends, we would then say, persevere in getting up and forwarding petitions—continue agitating the subject in your respectice di s t r i cts—t h e cause is not lost, for though oppression and cruelty may for a while prevail against truth, justice and humanity, right must ultimately triumph, and in the determination of the delegates to press forward their movements more vig orous l y t h an ever, we believe we ace the certainty of final success. Already two amendments are announced by Members of Parliament, to be moved on the Government Bill ; one for the liberation of the fem a l es, anot h er for the abolition of the ap prenticeship in Jamaica, and these will probably be superseded by a fresh m o ti on, f or entire emancipation. Since writing the above, we have received The Sun of Wed nesday evening, giving a ver y f u ll account o f t h e meet i ng held at Exeter-112'11. The Marquis of Clanricarde was in the Chair, and nobly advocated the cause of Negro freedom. On no previous occasion have our hopes been more confident as to the final success of the measure. The proceedings were characterised by great vigour and de termination, and the friends of humanity were urgently called upon to renew t h e i r exert i ons b y a f res h petitio ning, holding meetings,' spreading information on the subject, and calling on their Parli amentary representat i ves to vote for theimmedi ate abolition of the apprenticeship system. We confidently trust this call will be promptly responded to. The Bill in the Upper House is still in progress. Petitions in both Houses may be very short—proofs are trot now wanting ; we have only to call for justice in the entire unconditional freedom of the Negro. Last week, a Roman sepulchral urn was found by a brickmalter named Gowen, near Caister church, and within a short distance of a field where a man last year, whilst et work, struck his plough into the arch of an ancient vault, or, as some suppose, a place used as a granary by the Roman le gion when stationed in this part of the country.
